Watch Boyz N' The Hood Now: AAN.SonyPicture...
BOYZ N THE HOOD is the critically acclaimed story of three friends growing up in a South Central Los Angeles neighborhood, and of street life where friendship, pain, danger and love combine to form reality. "The Hood" is a place where drive-by shootings and unemployment are rampant. But it is also a place where harmony coexists with adversity, especially for three young men growing up there: Doughboy (Ice Cube), an unambitious drug dealer; his brother Ricky (Morris Chestnut), a college-bound teenage father; and Ricky's best friend Tre (Cuba Gooding, Jr.), who aspires to a brighter future beyond "The Hood." In a world where a trip to the store can end in death, the friends have diverse reactions to their bleak surroundings. Tre's resolve is strengthened by a strong father (Larry Fishburne)who keeps him on the right track. But the lessons Tre learns are put to the ultimate test when tragedy strikes close to home, and violence seems like the only recourse.
His father keeping him busy with chores all the time taught responsibility, discipline, and kept his ass out of trouble. Good job pops.
Like my father did when I was living with him. Wash dishes, sweeping, cut grass, change oil.
Nowadays this generation kids don’t have no chores or responsibilities which get them in trouble America is failing with cps and people that think discipline is abusing a child
@@zaysworld7783 nah, some of us still do chores
And whooped that ass and kept him out of the penitentiary.
True . Because I still do chores in my parents house . Because I had a option they said I either do chores or pay one of their bills . The reason why I chose chores because I wasn't planning on paying no bills until I got my own place and get a decent job . I was working at 1st before the pandemic but I about to get back on schedule working again real soon until I find another job . It takes time for that to happen .
Angela Basset and Lawrence Fishburne’s on screen chemistry is magnetic.
Just watch them in What's Love Got to Do with it....
@@jswizzle29 Agreed. Great movie. They are excellent together. Wish they did more roles opposite each other. I think Akeelah and the Bee was the only other I can think of
@@AshleyMagnolia_ Yep. They need to reunite on screen together again. It's been far too long.
Wouldn’t go that far.
Strong black king and queen.
His daddy's name was Furious, you know those whoopings were just ungodly. 😭
"Don't look at me funny if I ask you to do something!"
He was teaching him work ethics and being responsible and clean where you live seems harsh as a kid but he was lucky to have his father in his life
I mean he was Ike Turner.
@@ambiencemusic376 he was teaching his son as furious, but he was teaching the one as morpheus.
A man like Furious doesn't give whoopings. He doesn't need to. He raised Tre to fear losing his father's respect more than any punishment. Like a real father does.
This scene really shows how important it is to have your father in your life
Really? Tell us more, Mr. Science.

@@emp0rizzle Details, halibut breath!
@@emp0rizzledamn you went out of you way to demean black women when they weren’t even apart of the conversation
*good father. There's a world of difference. All the rest leaves you fucked up forever and with compromised morals, or no discipline, or just pure hate and bitterness. God knows how many men become extremely insecure and violent because they had horrible fathers. Fathers can fuck people up so badly and leave them wandering around the rest of their lives with those experiences and lash out against others because of it.
we really need Fathers like Furious in 2022 even more than in 1991, RIP John , you made a classic for the ages
Who died?
@@shakeeranoel4320 he isnt dead lol
@@youhaveayds8975 that's what I thought lol
@@shakeeranoel4320 im saying !!😂
there are plenty of fathers they just arent promoted
His ma is a lioness, she recognized he need a man in the boys life and delivered him to his dad a pillar of strength regardless of her feelings for dad .
So many women would not do that to spite the dad and destroy the children.
Its a great scene...
Only in a movie unfortunately, most females will keep the kids from perfectly good dads all because they are trying their damndest to hurt the dad
That's because unlike so many men he was stable, trustworthy and dependable. He owned his own business, owned his own home, was consistently in his child's life and treated his son's mother with respect. Probably paid his child support on time too.
Most modern women are but merely children themselves.
Well said and 100% agree with other comments made here.
that’s because his father was actually an active parent despite them not being together. a lot of men feel once the relationship with the mother is over, then so is their responsibilities as a father.
I remember my dad use to keep me busy with chores and it taught me responsibility and to stay out of trouble as well. God rest his soul. I miss you dad.
Join the club! My Father died of Cancer in 2013 and he also made my sister and I do chores, we hated him for it then but it was a blessing now. I've seen shows like Hoarders and How Clean Is Your House (UK) as well as a lady named Auketerina who cleans houses for folks who are depressed, lonely, sad, or don't try because nobody visits them. She is a miracle worker.
Not anymore 😂

I just watched this movie for the first time today and let me just say, Ricky’s death absolutely destroyed me. The way Brenda and Shanice were crying over his lifeless body on the couch…this is definitely a hood classic masterpiece.

Of course...she is Angela Bassett....
She was fine as hell back then and is still very good looking 30+ years later. Can’t park for shit though.

To many women in the community think this way
@@MrFunkhauser Seeing as how she has a classroom full of kids with dead fathers or no fathers in the household, that's a pretty justified question to ask. 😂
The opening scene when He told tre to get the leaves up. He asked Doughboy and Chris to do it and they said no. He was trying to help doughboy and Chris out. Give them some structure. Furious was a great dude.
This was a great movie and the message was solid. Too bad it was lost on the idiots that thought it was glamorizing gang life.
Angela Bassett was always someone's mom in a movie .In this movie she was Treys mom,in Notorious she was Biggy's mom,In Akeelah and The Bee she was Akeelah's mom and in Black Panther she was Tchalla's mom

Lol
When I was a kid, I never understood how the mom could just leave her son like that. But now that I am 30, with a a 7 yr old son, I understand completely. If I saw my son was going down the wrong path and I did all I could for him, I would need to do whats best for him and absolutely have his dad step in. His dad raising him with rules and discipline helped shape him into the man he became.
If only more kids were as lucky.
More kids could wind up like but u have moms who won't allow the kids to go stay with the dad for selfish reasons
The mum tried having some werid claim on him when he grew up and she tried taking him back when Tre was like 18. It was werid and the father rightly said he ain't no baby anymore you lost your chance.
Never noticed the foreshadowing for little Chris, as he rides away on his skateboard.
Need more fathers like Furious these days now more than ever.
Or we can say we need less mothers like her these days. Pay attention how she was given custody and I'm sure would of received child support,but then gives the child back to the father which I'm sure he would of received no such support. She never admits her failure as a parent and then later on in the movie when the boy is much older and a better young man thanks to his father, she wants to request that he spends time with her.
@@sammyjr6989 in real life if trey stayed with his moms instead of going to go learn from his dad, he would’ve been like doughboy.
@@Jstacksxxx That’s true. She probably wouldn’t have known his real dad and even if she did, she wouldn’t have let go of her cash flow.
Big azz Fax!
Instead we got more doughboys
They need to do more movies together. Angela and Laurence were the best onscreen pair in black cinema
Yea they was
Absolutely.
Refer to them as their characters not real life people.
@@hitek9too255 they are real life people. Why would I call them by the names of their characters that they are performing as instead of calling them by their real names of who they are really are?
@@CapricornGilbert Because they're not playing Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne. It's that simple. It also takes away from the movie.
Reba understood the assignment. She sent her boy to stay to with his father, so he could learn the essentials of manhood. She also went on to live her best life. Shout out to BOTH OF THEM for being great parents.
Leave her son so she can become successful yeah real selfless of her...
“She also went on to live her best life” a foreshadowing statement
Calling his mother a good parent right after saying she lived her best life is weird asf
Actually, a key part of the film is that the mother becomes distant, and once Tre becomes older and seemingly successful, she tries to get him to live with her. He doesn't want to, and she can't understand that Tre is now a grown man and she lost her time with him.
One of the realest movies you will ever see.

Something I would do😂
A real mother 💯
He is the definition of what a real dad should be
The fact that his parents are divorced they seemed to be getting along pretty well.
You're on the right track @aidanfox8219 but I know all about divorce families with 2 or 3 kids anyway.
Trey was one of the lucky ones in the hood who had a mom and dad to put him in the right direction. His dad told him when he was young that he was going to see what was going to happen to kids growing up without a dad or a mom living a lifestyle they shouldn't be exposed to.
5:55 I love how he immediately shuts that attitude shit down and gets in his ass right off the bat! Boy don’t look at me funny when I ask you to do something! He put an end to that real quick!

@@deathrager2404 😂😂
I think the best part about these scenes is that it shows how much different single moms behavior was in the 80s and '90s. Even well educated women that were bosses didn't have to say that they were bosses. She obviously knew that she can't teach her son how to be a man, so she resorted to the Father which was the right thing to do.
In reality that choice is not an option, and the mother never gnna give up that check.
@@holisterbruxly4554 Not in all cases
Being a child of the 80s and 90s to a single mother, there is a huge difference in the way single moms are allowed to behave. They don't call it the dead beat dad era for no reason. Women are to blame for a portion of this though, because back in the 80s and 90s women could just request full custody and would be granted it with full impunity, and the dad would get slammed with unreasonable child support fees and would have to go to court and fight for visitation rights. A single mom held all the cards and lots of dads would just bail. For the few dads that stuck around and wanted to be in the life of their kid, they had to put up with a bunch shit.
That's why this scene is important because it captures a glimpse of what it was like. Trey's mom is allowing him to go live with his father, and furious is even thanking her for it.
Nowadays it's much different. A court will typically order split custody of children, which means the kids will have to live with mom for a week, then dad for a week. The only times you see full custody now is if it proven one parent can't provide a home to the kids, in which case they will be responsible for paying child support. Any other living arrangements can be negotiated. The woman no longer gets all the say and determine the outcome of who gets the kids.
Bonus points that both parents have good respect for each and couldn't live together due to differences. But ultimately knew their child need structure in their lives. She came with Trey at a time where Furious was on the road to bettering himself as a man.😊
DAM YO DADDY MEAN..HE WORSE THAN THE BOOGIE MAN HIMSELF....😂😂😂😂😂😂! Gets me every time 😂😂😂😂
Angela's character being annoyed and assertive at the teacher was justified. The teacher was using various stigmatism in her means to "help" Tre. Tre got issues and Reva knows she need to nip it in the bud. Sending Tre to live with his father Furious is the best decision for her son. There's a reason why his nickname is "Furious".
It's a movie...
@@TheDeeStain You don't say...
@Paulo HernanndizzGood catch in the initial start of the phone call. The minute the teacher asked about Reva's employment status, she instantly jumps to a condescending statistic mindset.
@Paulo Hernanndizz to be fair in that neighborhood I'd love to see the statics of employed going for their masters. Teacher probably has never seen that.
@@kanegarvey848 Yeah, that was rare in the Inglewood area of LA at the time. Not sure if that's the case in these current times.
I love how it seemingly took him hours to rake up just two bags of leaves.
The only leaves ON the block!
Lofl at both your comments. 3-4 sweeps with the rake and that yard is clean.
I know right! Look how small that yard is. It would've taken 10 at best
back in the day when the coolest movie of the time had an actual moral fibre and a lesson in integrity.
“I can’t teach him how to be a man. That’s your job!”
Perfect. Very self aware woman - she knows her strengths and limits as a female . She knows only men can raise boys to be men . Feels like our society now is trying to pretend this isn’t true
Great movie!
Well said 👏
What, you think every father takes on that job and does it well? Hell, with some fathers a boy would be better off learning how to me a man from his friends, not his dirtbag dad. And moms can teach plenty of stuff as well.
Grow up kid. Not everyone has both parents
@@AndrewLaReal true
@80s_Boombox_Collector Single mothers are horrible mothers. I know, because I was raised by one. Ended up a simp, and a pathetic pacifist. I needed my father. Despite him being a drunk, he taught me my worst enemy is myself. My mother taught me a victim mentality. In the process of unlearning all that shit. So you can stfu with all those lies.
Treys dad knew when he asked those other boys the rake his yard for money they wouldn't do it because they had no example of hard work and discipline but still asked to see what they'd say
Alot of young men in our community is missing a father like that and it shows. Fatherhood is necessary to guide young men as they grow
Angela Bassett and Laurence Fishburne are such a great time! Both ♌ Leo's. Such wonderful acting. They are a wonderful team.
Forgot I was watching a RUclips clip for a moment, I was fully invested and ready to watch the rest of the movie.

Thats how you know its a gem
No cap 😂😂😂
Everyone in this film did so well at portraying their roles
Love this scene, the connection a kid can have with his parents, even though the forms to express it can vary from parent to parent.
Also I forgot how gorgeous Angela Basset was when she was young.
You aint lying!!
Yes Angela was gorgeous
Well I hope you don’t think she is any less today.
Angela Bassett is still gorgeous at going on 65.
One thing I didn't pay attention to much first seeing this movie is when Furious offers Tres friends to pick up leaves. Chris brushes him off while Doughboy mentions Chris works for his uncle which meant he most likely sells drugs for him lol

“You tell her to go jump in a lake momma?” 😂
Point how the teacher asks the mother about her education and intelligence. This isn’t just showing the ‘life of Tre Styles’ but is showing in general, the racial tension between white and coloured people. How inner city people are perceived. And how the teacher says ‘His father?’ Assuming that black inner city folks, by stereotype, are raised without their fathers/single parent. Etc.
Singleton was a genius🙌🏼
Thank you!
I mean in fairness they were separated
It’s not racist to notice patterns though. Today over 70% of black children don’t have a father in the home - is it racist to say this fact? Of course not ..
Btw racism exists between all groups! I find it comical how some only think racism exists between whites and blacks
Yeah we don't say coloured anymore. It wasn't okay back then and it isn't okay now. It's racist. And by the way since you're probably not aware of this seeing as how he use that outdated word, it's not okay to call Asians Oriental anymore either. It's 2023, get with the program.
I love how they showed that even though they were no longer together tray's mother and father still clearly loved and respected each other
Dad was a wonderful person. Was there for him and raised him right. Mom was smart. She didn't want him dead, locked up or a drunk. She knew she couldn't raise a man.
Those jazz solos are so beautiful and nostalgic
Angela Bassett hasn't aged at all. She's still fine as hell in her 60's

One of the few movies, very few, I cried when seeing it. Great acting, great cast, great directing. Real life. Rest in Perfect Peace & Power Brother Singleton.
The instrumental by Stanley Clarke "Father & Son" is just stellar here. Nearly makes me cry. This film is a true masterpiece, and even still today it holds up both in message, and poignancy.

@@WWETHROWBACKWILSON That's good. Though I probably don't have to tell you, you should continue to cherish that relationship as long as you can. My dad passed away in thos past Christmas. I remember when he sat me down years back to watch this movie because he wanted me to learn from it.
I'm 42 years old I remember my sister & I went to go live with our Dad at 11 & 12 years old that was back in 1991 that was the happiest day because I was missing my dad we didn't wanna live with our mom anymore because our living conditions was terrible our Electric and gas was getting shut off and we couldn't stand our mom boyfriend.
We had to get from over there.
We did our chores did an little bit of yard work we didn't get no Allowance 😂.
Dad was an little strict on us but I'm glad he was because he kept us from going down the wrong Road my dad taught us how to keep the house clean and pay bills and go to work everyday even taught us how to Drive.
Also taught us how to stand up for ourselves. My dad still lecture us in our 40s 😂 dad always gonna be dad
I'm thankful that he still with us will be turning 75 next month
That was such a good movie ...this was always the most powerful sence for me .The mom realized that Tray needed his father to know how to he a man and it shows how all there lives turned out US MEN IN THIS COUNTRY HAVE TO DO BETTER AS FATHERS FOR OUR CHILDREN
I adore Angela Bassett like legit the only woman I would tear the world down for she exudes excellence every role.
When I was younger, I thought tre’s mom was a selfish woman. I thought “why is she sending him to the hood around other bad kids and trouble.
It wasn’t until I was older that I realized “damn she was a reasonable and smart woman who knew her son needed a positive male role model”.
True
She lived in the hood too though
@Paulo Hernanndizz no you wasnt shut up
False
@Paulo Hernanndizz that never happened lol
Lawrence Fishburnes and Angela Basset one an incredible actor and the other an incedible actress
I love this movie. It portrays how a strong positive father makes a difference in a young boys life and at the same time, it also highlights the negative effects of having an absent father.
Watching now from a fathers POV and all I can say is that this was a powerful movie . RIP John Singleton
That right there saved his life and he mad haha. Gotta love fathers. RIP pops I don’t know where I’d be if you weren’t like this to me. Can’t ever repay you for all the lessons you taught me. I was angry as a child but I am so GRATEFUL as a man now ❤
This scene was so underrated, there are so many different aspects of life going on. The crazy part is this scene shows so much of life that its often over looked.
The true message of this movie is about how powerful dads are. We see these boyz never actually grow up, they just get taller, because even grown they have no Father or direction. Tre is the exception, and even he stumbles, but finds his way again.
Kid has anger problems, yet mom denies therapy or counseling is necessary.
This movie is insanely deep on so so many levels that it simply can't be described in words!🌟💯
This is whats missing in society nowadays! My dad was had me working from sunrise to sundown. It instills a work ethic and teaches understanding and respect. Kids nowadays dont even take the trash out ffs! Its the parents fault, they've become to soft.
That’s because the government makes it seem like working your children or disciplining them in anyway is neglect or abuse nowadays. Hearing stories of parents having their children taken from them has turned a lot of parents soft and it will only get worse. Harmless Things I was doing at 16-17 like sneaking out to drink a beer children are now doing at 12.
Get over yourself boomer. You guys raised the generations that raised "kids today." So much for "successful parenting".
Bro out of all chores the one I hated the most was folding everyone’s clothes 😂 dishes and mowing the lawn is all good but folding clothes god damn I hated that shxt 😂
She had to roll over the curb didn’t she to make it a hood film lol classic !
All that space n all😂
Rest in peace Mr. Singleton.
Troubles? I ain’t got no troubles 😂😂 young doughboy was funny as hell
Amazing. Back when parents did what parents do. Look out for their children. ✌️
Let's be honest, 95% of the kids raised by mothers AND fathers don't wind up as trash.
@Lee Brown Look up prison statistics, clown.
It's not 95 BUT a good majority dont
One of the most important movies of my youth. I try to teach these youth what it means to have a work ethic and being self-reliant.
I like how instantly his pops is like, alright you want to be a spoiled smart ass. I got something for your ass…rake these leaves and don’t look at me funny if I ask you to do something. Instantly checked his ass after he said “do what? with that tone of voice…great father.
@Elias HeronBons hahaha 🤣
Damn, Tre's moms and pops both raised him well, her for making him own up to his word and pop dukes coz ya know that's Furious Styles lol
Unironically the best movie dad of the 90s.

You know black people change colors from winter to summer lmao I was technically a dark skin child it depend on being in the sun... I was a dark baby I came out dark but now I'd have to focus to get real brown
Why errr u concerned?
Anglea & Laurence arguably have the besr chemistry of a actor & actress Ever in cinemas.
“Man that aint shit” 😂😂😂
Angela Bassett is absolutely gorgeous 😍
Still is
After all these years I realize this is the second movie I saw Angela basset and Laurence fishburn in 😂
sssshit at 6:30 when the music kicks in I got tears in my eyes such a beautiful scene with the dropping of leaves like autumn and life passes by in the hood.... Powerfull!!
Teaching his son responsibilities at an early age
I grew up in this era I tell you what we'll never get these times back again
There are no do-overs no playbacks no rewind Thats why these white folks are so pissy because they can't go back to the so called Nifty fifties
"Who he think you is, Kunta Kente!?"
Hahaha and he said it so Matter-of-fact too.
man, the last time i watched this movie was when i was like, 13 or 14. i shouldnt have seen it due to my lack of understanding of what the movie was about but i think it's high time i watch it again.
only one of the best movies ever. great actors, great music, and a great lesson taught. greatness.
This is another one of my favorite scenes that brings back flashbacks. I like doughboy how he's rocking Michael Jackson shirt and raiders. Me and my brothers never had our mom around so we used to roam the city like Trey and his homeboys.
When I first watched this movie in 1991, I loved it!!!!
An American flick with heart I thought, Not just the usual Hollywood thrills and spills stuff!
I related to it with some measure of comprehension.
However , that was as a much younger man, still in my teens and living in Nigeria, and I was totally unaware of the intense and toxic brutality that Black Americans had to deal with almost on a daily basis!
But now watching this clip, the frustrations of Black America hits me with amazing and undiluted clarity!
Now that I am aware of the tragedies of Trayvon Martin, Ahmaud Arbery and George Floyd, amongst thousands of many others in the United States!
The Angela Bassett’s character expresses her fears and anguish for her son’s welfare so succinctly!
A great great film!
John Singleton ( screenwriter/director) take a bow, regardless of what corner of heaven you might be at!
This movie was my childhood. Going back to it every couple years, makes me tear up how much more i understand it and reflect upon it on my own life. I feel like everyone else who lives in the ghetto, NEED to see this movie. Definitely my top 3 of all time
The leaves falling to that music when he arrives at his dads house is very strange , it’s like it transports me to another time
